This image is from a copperplate engraving, and shows part of a 'roll of arms' from Richard Blome's (Britannia), an atlas published in 1673. It features the coats of arms of people who contributed towards the completion of the work – starting with King Charles II. Each page includes 35 coats of arms, presented here in pairs. These two coats of arms are from folio (page) 23 of the work. In old English, an 's' appeared as a 'long s' (which looks like an 'f'), while 'ss' appeared as 'fs'. 'Com' was an abbreviation for 'County'. A number is assigned to each benefactor. Here are the accompanying texts (followed by modernised English where appropriate): 760 Ye Rt. Hon'ble Sr. Robert Ridgeway Kt. & Bart. Earle of LONDONDERRY & Baron of Gallen Ridgeway in ireland &ca at Torre in Com Devon & at Ballinakill in ye Queen's County in Ireland (The Right Honourable Robert Ridgeway; Earl of Londonderry and Baron of Gallen-Ridgeway; Torrington, Devon) 761 Thomas CHAFIN of Chettle in Com Dorfet Efq (Thomas Chafin (Chaffin) of Chettle in Dorset) More from the same coat-of-arms series (many more via blue link): .
